Spell lists by class still shows all spell no matter what class you search for in the compendium

Spell lists by class still shows all spells no matter what class you search for in the compendium.  I reported this a while ago and still today despite all the nice new changes this basic information is still incorrect.

I assume this is for D&D 5e. Yes, the problem is that it is very easy to find this deprecated spell database (with "Druid spells by level," "Cleric spells by name" and so on all pointing to the same omnibus listing of all 5e spells, that cannot even be filtered by class) and very hard to find the correct lists. For the benefit of anyone who, like me, initially failed the DC 18 Roll20 Arcana check and instead made the mistake of typing "Spells" (or "Cleric" or "Druid" or "Sorcerer", or anything at all really) in the search box, here's how you find, say, a list of second-level cleric spells. The trick, if you actually want to see spells for one particular D&D 5e class, is to avoid the search box . 1. Go to the Compendium tab and click on the link for "Spells." You may have to scroll down . 2. Once the spell list loads, find the tiny, italicized "Filter Results" text just under the search bar. This text is in fact a clickable element! Go ahead and click it. 3. In the popup window that appears, choose whatever filters you like (say, "Cleric" for class and "Level 2" for level), and click "Apply Filters." Ta-da! Second-level cleric spells: Edit: The class list error, as well as the chaos introduced by the autolinker, are pain points for many users of Roll20's most popular game system, especially when we are starting out. Addressing those two things would greatly improve the user experience.
Restating the bug in question for clarity: Make a game that uses the D&D 5e compendium (say, by choosing "D&D 5e by Roll20" as the character sheet template). Type "Spells" in the search box, and scroll down to "Lists." Click on any link under "Lists" -- say, "Cleric Spells by Level." Expected behavior: Cleric Spells by Level should return a list or table of cleric spells by level. Actual behavior: Every link points to the same "Spells List" table, consisting of every spell in the game that the user has access to, neither restricted to a particular class nor filterable by class.
Thank you very much Sarah
